"Onion SportsDome" Moves To Tuesdays at 8pm ET

Mark Shepard:

"I'm not going to sugarcoat it: moving the SportsDome to eight o'clock is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me in my entire life. As soon as I found out about the move, I was elated.

I immediately started researching the number eight just to get acquainted to the new time and compare it to my personal celestial fingerprint. Found out some great things.

- 8 is a lucky number in China! The phone number 888-8888 sold for 270 thousand dollars there. I only paid three thousand for mine, so that is crazy.

- The Ghubar Arabs were the ones who gave the numeral "8" its distinctive look. About time they did something worthwhile.

- Hanukkah lasts 8 days AND 8 nights

- The number 8 is a 'magic' number for Geminis

- I couldn't find any other interesting facts about the number eight but I'm still psyched about it

Alex Reiser:

"The question most people have been asking me since they heard we are moving the show to 8:00 is if I will tone down my trademark Reiser persona now that we are in primetime when most children are sitting in front of their televisions because of absentee parents. I am confident it will be the same show, mostly because I never understand what I've done is wrong until someone is reprimanding me for it. The show will still be about sports and I will still be the king because Reiser Is The King, even at 8:00."
